- Reading
- Try one story at a time, then pause to compare its characters and concerns with another tale; the collection's individual stories may suit a flexible reading pace.
- Themes
- Community and country life: The stories concern personalities and events in and around Avonlea, with community and country life identified as subjects. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Choices and responsibility: Story titles include a conscience case and the selflessness of a character, indicating that moral decisions feature in the collection. These titles raise moral questions, but they do not show what the choices are or whether the stories endorse or criticise them.
- Worth knowing
- The collection includes titles about a failure, a conscience case and a dream-child; what happens in these stories, and their emotional weight, remain unclear.
